Generated using:
  $ ./scripts/codeconverter/converter.py -i --passes=2 \
    --pattern=TypeRegisterCall,TypeInitMacro $(git grep -l TypeInfo -- '*.[ch]')

One notable difference is that files declaring multiple types
will now have multiple separate __construtor__ functions
declared, instead of one for all types.
